SPOTIFY THROWS A POOL PARTY FOR NEW ARTIST NOMINEES

Glass Animals, Jimmie Allen and Arooj Aftab made the most of their Grammy visit to Las Vegas by attending Spotify’s reception for Best New Artist nominees.

The brunch at the Encore Beach Club at The Wynn attracted a crowd that included Lauv, iann dior, Nija Charles, Ryan Hurd, Mickey Guyton, Tinashe, Rufus du Sol, Boslen, Zack Bia and Sylvan Esso.

The entire crew was seen doing cannonballs in the pool after a final round of mojitos.

Fresh from the nickel slots, Global Head of Music Jeremy Erlich joins Chief Content Officer Dawn Ostroff and other members of the Spotify team for this unforgettable Vegas tableau. Seen just before heading en masse to the buffet are (top row, l-r): Dustee Jenkins, Joe Hadley, Maddy Bennett, Erlich, Ostroff, Carl Chery, Whitney Gayle Benta, Victor Trubowitch, Sydney Lopes and Jana Coffey and (bottom row, l-r) Sarah Patellos, Ashley Graver, Sulinna Ong and Gillian Taugher.

Glass Animals (l-r) Joe Seaward, Dave Bayley, Ed Irwin-Singer and Crew MacFarlane attend Spotify’s party, showing off a wardrobe financed by 1.4b spins of a single track.

Ostroff and Mickey Guyton welcome the streaming service’s newfound love of the color orange.
